Too Windy!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
For the hike on Sunday, it was too windy. We reached the top but came back quickly the same way. No pictures could be taken! I am happy I survived and came back in one piece. Not much fun! Everyone had their own climbing buddy so they stayed among themselves. I did not care much. […]

The Good Things!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
Since I arrived, I have been extremely stressed and that has visible consequences on my health: a second herpes and two cold consecutively. I am still recovering from the second one. I kept on coughing. There are good things that happened to me though. I was worried about the tuition fee that turned out in […]

A Good Laugh!
Filed Under Daily | Leave a Comment
I was quietly having my dinner in the common kitchen room when Rafiq came in. We started chatting and he mentioned about the noises made by his neighbor next door: the moaning and the banging she made with her newly found BF. I laughed hard and it felt so good to laugh that much. I […]

Little things in my life!

After a challenging hike on Sunday, my body is again broken. I should not underestimate the dudes and the chick who were in Hike 1. I hope they are enduring the same pain. I went shopping with Amy, my flatmate next door. She is kind and looks all fancy and sexy. She has a great […]

My blog is now one year old! It has changed so much since it first started. I never thought I would hold that long and I kept it updated quite regularly. It also has become easier for people to follow whenever they feel like my whereabouts. It is stored on Eno’s Slackware box somewhere in […]

A certain consensus!

It looks like that people at the pool started to realize I am a bit faster than them. I was very surprised yesterday to find my lane almost empty and the lane next to me full of medium swimmers. Today almost only fast swimmers were in my lane, and slower ones were kindly letting me […]

Borrowdale
Filed Under Daily, Hiking | Leave a Comment
I went hiking on Sunday. It was nice but Borrowdale is very much like Keswick since they both are in the Lake District area. So a feeling of “Deja vu”: Borrowdale. It took again 12 hours. I am not sure I want to spend that much time hiking and taking pictures. I am sure I […]
